Wait for a Socket to Become Writable

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.SelectForWriting, which waits for the socket, or sockets in a socket set, to become writable. It returns 1 if writable, 0 on timeout, or -1 on error.

    success := false

    socket := chilkat.NewSocket()

    //  Connect to the server using TLS.
    bTls := true
    maxWaitMs := 5000
    success = socket.Connect("example.com",5000,bTls,maxWaitMs)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(socket.LastErrorText())
        socket.DisposeSocket()
        return
    }

    //  Wait up to 5 seconds for the socket (or sockets in a socket set) to become writable.  Returns 1 if
    //  writable, 0 on timeout, or -1 on error.
    ready := socket.SelectForWriting(5000)
    if ready < 0 {
        fmt.Println(socket.LastErrorText())
        socket.DisposeSocket()
        return
    }

    if ready != 1 {
        fmt.Println("The socket did not become writable before the timeout.")
        socket.DisposeSocket()
        return
    }

    fmt.Println("The socket is ready for writing.")
